From the profile of OP, it is clear that he's using bitcointalk since 2014. I don't know from which year he had got into signature campaigns. Maybe if he had got into signature campaign earning earlier and if he had kept hold of those funds now this question couldn't have come into his mind. In the past users receive similar pay, but in terms of BTC it used to be very high against now. Sometimes I used to calculate what I've got earlier and what it could've been in today's price. Thats a big difference, and on such calculation everyone suggests to hold and enjoy the goodness. However the holding shouldn't restrict us from leading our life through sacrifice. We should live and with rest available we should hold for the future profit.
